Thora Birch has expressed her eagerness to return for the much-anticipated sequel, “Hocus Pocus 3.” Known for her role as Dani in the original film, Birch’s potential return has fans buzzing. The original “Hocus Pocus” was released in 1993 and quickly became a cult classic.
Thora Birch’s Interest in Dani’s Fate
During a recent appearance, Birch shared her enthusiasm about reprising her role. She indicated that she would like to explore how her character has evolved since the iconic Halloween night depicted in the first film. Birch stated, “I’d like to know what they land on for how Dani wound up. I’m super open to the idea.”
Return of Beloved Characters
The original “Hocus Pocus” featured several key characters aside from Dani. These included:
- Max, played by Omri Katz
- Allison, portrayed by Vinessa Shaw
- Zombie Billy Butcherson, played by Doug Jones
Although these characters did not appear in “Hocus Pocus 2,” Birch’s interest raises questions about their potential return in the next film.

Fans are eagerly awaiting updates on “Hocus Pocus 3.” Last week, Bette Midler, who reprises her role as Winifred Sanderson, mentioned that she has already read the script. She described much of it as “brilliant,” heightening anticipation for the upcoming sequel.
As the production moves forward, it remains to be seen how the directors will weave together the stories of both returning characters and newcomers. Stay tuned for more updates from El-Balad regarding this exciting upcoming installment in the “Hocus Pocus” franchise.
